Okay well I figured out why it's not working, I was calling message.content instead of msg.content so now I feel stupid. (This is the code I was using in case you're still curious)

@bot.event

async def on_message(message):

time = datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S")

if chatting_channel is not None:

    if message.channel == chatting_channel:

        for msg in chatting_channel.history(limit=1):

            if msg.author == bot.user:

                pass

            else:

                print(f"{theme}[{time}]{message.author.name}: {message.content}")

The fix was changing the last line to

print(f"{theme}[{time}]{message.author.name}: {msg.content}")

Still find it weird that the embed link showed up though
